Mahalo nui to @Cargill@NELHA1 for helping us in our efforts to propel these sustainable aquaculture companies and projects forward!
WHY do we do #regenerative#seaweed#aquaculture? The answer is in the 4Cs. One is #Conservation. #Sharks are under huge threat. If they go the whole #bluefood system we ALL depend on collapses. Seaweed can help restore the ocean-but ONLY if done right. Which is one of our WHYs.
Congratulations to our Spring 2022 Grantees! They will join our portfolio of supported projects and contribute to the improvement of #safety in the global #seaweed sector. Learn more👉🏻https://t.co/G7bcaETLC6

"Farming seaweeds is like looking for what you don't have in life. If you are stressed because of family and kids, you can go to your farm and you can find joy, especially when your seaweeds are growing well...". 'Magic Marge' sums up her love for seaweed farming!

Excited to have shipped 24,750kg of #seaweed over the weekend! Much of this was trapped following super typhoon #Odette and has now been freed, allowing us to continue investing in #regenerative seaweed practices to #rebuild#livelihoods of those most affected by Odette
Plenty of time to pick up some wild #seaweed and #urchin for lunch on the boat whilst we're out searching for wild Kappaphycus breeding stock with our advisor and collaborator Prof Maikee. Seafood at its best....
